Harvard is the oldest institutionof higher learning in the U.S., butUCF beat both the Crimson andYale in racking up the most endow-ments forthe 2010 fis-cal year.
Lastweek, theUCF Foun-dationannouncedthe schoolearned a12.5 percentreturn onendow-mentinvest-ments,while Har-vard’syielded 11percentand Yale’sbroughtback 8.9percent.
“Thefact thatdonors arecontributing more to our annualcampaign is a testament to the qual-ity of our students and our academ-ic programs,” said Bob Holmes,CEO of the UCF Foundation. “Weare thankful for our donors’ strongcommitment to supporting our stu-dents in our classrooms andresearch laboratories and on ourathletic fields.”
Students and faculty at UCF may have to dig deep-er in their pockets to pay for parking on campus nextyear, as the university is planning to raise parking decalprices by 7 percent, the largest increase in five years.
Under the proposed plan, students should expect to payabout $3 more for a one-semester decal sticker, and facultyand staff should expect to pay about $10 more.
John Edison, a juniorcomputer engineeringmajor, doesn’t think raisingprices is the right move forthe university. He said healways has to park inGarage A because parkingin the other garages nearhis classes is impossible.
“If we are payingmore, we should be get-ting better quality,” hesaid.
On Friday, the Park-ing and TransportationAdvisory Committee
will vote on whether toincrease the parkingdecal price by 7 percent,based on the Student
Fee Committee’s recommendation to increase thetransportation access fee by 81 cents per credit hour.
The Student Fee Committee dictates how muchthe transportation access fee increases every year.For the 2010-11 academic year, the fee is $8.19 and isincluded in tuition and goes toward all on- and off-campus shuttle services, such as the campus affiliat-ed apartment complexes.
In November, the Transportation Advisory Com-mittee requested an increase in the fee of 88 cents,

hard to bring winter’swonders to Central Flori-da, but the annual holidayattraction is up against adecidedly subtropical cli-mate. Maintaining an out-door ice skating rink andan “Arctic Glide Ice Slide”in the Sunshine State is anenergy-intensive affair, sowho is footing the bill?
Also, how compatibleis such an event withUCF’s efforts to become amore eco-friendly univer-sity?
According to MelissaSchaaf, director of market-ing for the UCF Arena,
Light Up UCF is not fund-ed by the university at all.The event is hosted andmanaged by the UCFArena, which is run byGlobal Spectrum.

Getting into the Christmasspirit
The Orlando Shake-speare Theater will beperforming “Chaps! A Jin-gle Jangle Christmas.”
The play takes placethe night before Christmasin England, 1944.
Late for a holidaybroadcast in London, aproducer pulls together alast minute act with what-ever actors he can find.
The result is a fun med-ley of Christmas songs andlaughs.
Several performancesare scheduled through the Christopher Marshall, an
adjunct music professorand head of composition atUCF, has created about200 different musicalpieces for all types andsizes of orchestralensembles.
On Nov. 27 and 28, theNew Zealand native’smusic was played in
Auckland, New Zealand, tocrowds that gave standingovations.
“A world premiere isalways an honor,” Marshallsaid. “To have two in thespace of two days is veryspecial.”
Though Marshall him-self wasn’t there, he wasproud that his piece,“Cançó del Mar,” receivedgood reactions.
“This piece, about thesea, is quite special to meas I wrote it 12 years ago,
and most conductors upuntil now have said it wasnon-performable,” Marshallsaid. “Now I feel vindicat-ed.”
In addition to his workbeing featured across theocean, his piece “AlafayaSuite” was presented Nov.19 in St. Luke’s Cathedral.
That showing evolvedfrom an idea of musicprofessors Nora LeeGarcia and GeorgeWeremchuk. Garciaand Weremchukplanned a newensemble consist-ing only of saxo-
phones and flutes of allsizes, the first groupof this precise
arrangement in the world. Theprofessors and the ensemble,known as Knight Winds, soughtout Marshall to write their firstpiece.
On Nov. 17, Marshall attend-ed a concert in Athens, Ga.,where his piece “L’hommearme” was performed. Thepiece actually had a hand inchanging his future.
“It was at the premiere of thispiece in Sweden in 2003 that Ifirst met UCF conducting pro-fessors Laszlo Marosi andRichard Greenwood who per-suaded me to move to Orlando,”Marshall said.
In addition to changing thepath he was on, the piece alsoholds significant value becauseit was commissioned in memo-ry of his friend’s son who waskilled in a climbing accident.
Marshall is currently writingtwo pieces, the first being asuite inspired by Emily Dickin-son’s poetry, which is beingcommissioned by UCF’s per-formance faculty for flutes, sax-ophones and marimbas. Thesecond is apiece forfull-
wind ensemble commis-sioned by a British conduc-tor.
In addition to creatingmusical pieces, Marshallloves attending concerts.
“So often there are sur-prises in concerts; that’s whyI love attending whenever Ican,” Marshall said. “Often aconductor can bring outaspects of my work that I donot realize is there. And it iswonderful to see the reac-tion in the audience.”
As far as difficultieswhen creating and perform-ing music, all sorts of prob-lems can occur. Scheduling,practicing, organization,deadlines, and much moreimportant factors must betaken into account.
Not only must performershave the knowledge and skill,but the emotion must also bepresent.
“The performance ofmusic requires not only tech-nical skill and physical stami-na, but also total emotionalfocus on the music,” Marshallsaid. “When it all comestogether the result can bethrilling. If just one compo-nent is missing it can all col-lapse in a heap.”
When Marshall is notbusy with performing orproducing musical pieces,he is involved with seminarsfor students who are complet-ing their doctorates in con-ducting.
Marshall says that thestudents were very positiveto his music and keen to
know the backgroundsfor each piece.

As the fall semesterdraws to a close, studentshave a new option when itcomes to getting rid ofunwanted textbooks.
Instead of earning anoften measly sum throughbook buybacks, studentscan donate their booksthrough a campus-widebook drive through Dec. 10.
Organized by Circle KInternational, a communityservice club at UCF, thebook drive bin was filledwith books early Tuesdayafternoon and continued tofill up as students passed bywhere the organization hadset up in front of the Stu-dent Union.
The Student Union wasflooded with live music andflyers that indicated booksshould be kept out of land-fills and donated.
Wynstona Louis, a soph-omore molecular biologyand microbiology major,stopped by the event infront of the Student Unionand made a promise todonate her books beforethe semester ends.
“I just feel like educationis an important aspect ofhuman life and that no oneshould be inhibited justbecause they don’t have theproper equipment or theproper tools in order to ful-fill that dream that theyhave,” Louis said. “By giv-ing books, I’m giving backto the community, and bythe community learning,they are giving back aswell.”
Circle K has partneredwith Better World Books, afor-profit project that gath-ers used books and sellsthem online to raise moneyfor literacy programs allover the world.
The project, whichoffers free shipping to any-where in the U.S., hasraised close to $9 million to
date and saved more than37 million books from end-ing up in landfills.
Circle K is asking formore than just textbooks.They’re also acceptingstudy guides, workbooksand their accompanyingCDs. Highlighting or writ-ing is acceptable as long asthe text isn’t obscured.
The organization is alsoaccepting hardcover non-fiction and fiction books,paperbacks, former librarybooks and travel guideswith copyright dates fromthe last five years.
The club has set updonation bins throughoutcampus at the Student
Academic Resource Cen-ter, Multicultural Academicand Support Services, theMulticultural Student Cen-ter, the Office of Fraternityand Sorority Life, the Stu-dent Union InformationDesk, as well as in Apollo,Libra and Tower III.
The profits madethrough Circle K’s bookdrive will go to Books forAfrica, a group that collectsand distributes books toclassrooms in rural schoolsand children across Africa.
Ellie Baialieva, sopho-more pre-clinical healthsciences major, is presidentof Circle K at UCF.
One of Baialieva’s inspi-
rations for a book drivecame from her first year oncampus.
“When I used to live oncampus my freshman year,I could not help but noticepiles of unwanted booksand textbooks in the trash-cans during the move-out-of-dorms time at the end ofthe semester,” she said.
Baialieva is overseeingthe book drive and hopesCircle K will exceed theirgoal of 10 boxes of text-books and materials beforethe semester comes to anend.
“Access to education issometimes taken for grant-ed. We fail to realize that,
somewhere in the world,children do not have theopportunity of going toschool or even owning abook,” Baialieva said. “Byparticipating in the text-book drive, students havethe ability to help raisemoney for literacy pro-grams, such as Books forAfrica, and to promote lit-eracy around the world.”
If students have troublefinding a bin or have a largeamount of textbooks they’dlike to donate, they can e-mail Circle K [email protected] orfind them Facebook andthe organization will pickthem up.

but that was rejected by theStudent Fee Committee,which recommended anincrease of 81 cents, saidJohn Keena, business man-ager for Parking and Trans-portation Services.
Keena said the studentcommittee felt that the stu-dents should not have to beresponsible for the entire
increase in parking costsand that the cost should beabsorbed by faculty andstaff as well.
Junior biology majorDimitry Maksimchuk does-n’t support the proposedincrease.
“[The decal increase] ismessed up. Everything elseis going up in price, andthat is one thing thatshouldn’t,” he said.
This rejected request isleading the advisory com-mittee to consider increas-ing the parking decal by 7percent next year to helpoffset the lost revenue fromthe original request.
The increase would alsohelp pay for the new park-ing garage near the Psy-chology building and thedebt payments on the twoTowers’ garages.
The university builtthe Towers garages,which then put them intodebt. By leasing them toParking and Transporta-tion Services, it will becheaper than buildingtwo additional garages.
As a result of bringingthe garages into the park-ing system, Towers resi-dents will be paying $141for a decal, the sameamount as other housingstudents, and will nolonger receive numbered
spaces.For 2010-11, students
had to pay $480 for adecal in the Towersgarages.
But the decal increaseand parking garage pay-ment restructuring, arenot the only things theuniversity has planned interms of parking.
Kris Singh, director ofParking and Transporta-tion Services, said therewill be a new parkinggarage in a year or two.
Keena said the project-ed cost of that garage willbe about $14 million andwill be located on LibraDrive near the PrintShop.
The Parking andTransportation AdvisoryCommittee will meetagain Friday to vote onthe 7 percent increase.The meeting will be opento the public. It will beheld at 9 a.m. in Room 335of Health and PublicAffairs.

A proposed change to the rates of parking decals would see an increase of about $3 for students.The changes for facultyand staff would be more extreme, running about $10 more per semester.

Ron Rideout, theArena’s assistant generalmanager, admits thatbringing winter charm toUCF isn’t cheap.
“Obviously, whenyou’re doing somethinglike that and it’s 80degrees outside, there’s asignificant energy cost,”he said. “You’re keepingice cold at 80 degrees; it’sdifficult to do.”
Costly as it is to keep a
patch of ground frozenfor 53 days in flip-flopweather, Light Up UCFwas able to turn a profitboth of the two years ithas been hosted so far.
Attendance for thisyears’ event is projectedto increase by 10 to 15 per-cent from last year, so thefunding aspect isn’t likelyto become a problem.
“I think it’s a greatidea; it’s fun,” said fresh-man environmental engi-neering major Keegan
O’Brien.What may instead be
an issue is the fact thatLight Up UCF stands insharp contrast to the uni-versity’s many efforts tobecome a greener, moresustainable campus.
The UCF Sustainabili-ty website lists dozens ofenergy efficiency proj-ects the university is cur-rently operating, andPresident John Hitt is asignatory to the Ameri-can College and Univer-
sity Presidents’ ClimateCommitment, an initiativethat outlines ways in whichuniversities can pursue cli-mate neutrality.
Ice-skating rinks andlight shows aren’t men-tioned anywhere.
According to DavidNorvell, UCF’s director ofSustainability and EnergyManagement, the universi-ty’s energy policy includeseverything on campus,including the Arena, but heis not aware of any viola-tions resulting from LightUp UCF’s operations.
Understandably, micro-cosms of ice and snowwere not considered whenUCF’s energy consumptionguidelines were drafted.
However, it would bereasonable to expect a uni-versity this committed tosustainability to come up
with environmental impactmitigation measures oncethe decision was made tohost an event that con-sumes so much energy.
According to Norvell, nosuch measures have beenenacted, and the decisionto host Light Up UCF wasnot made in consultationwith the department ofSustainability and EnergyManagement.
The only impact reduc-tion effort that seems tohave been made is the useof what Norvell calls “themost efficient lightingtechnology we have rightnow.”
Energy is being saved bythe event’s LED light bulbs— all 75,000 of them.
Only about 4 percent ofUCF’s main campus energyconsumption comes fromthe Arena, according to
numbers published on theuniversity’s Open EnergyInformation System.
Light Up UCF accountsfor a fraction of that, so itwould be unfair to accusethe university of environ-mental treason.
Students and outsideguests using the event’sfacilities are for the mostpart unconcerned by any ofthis.
“I do like it, especiallythe lights,” said RyanSchultz, a senior filmmajor.
After all, Christmaslights, ice skating and sled-ding are part of what makesthe holiday spirit in Ameri-ca, whether in Montana orin Florida.
“I like it a lot because it’snot as cold as up north,”said Connie Harper, a localresident.

UCF’s endowments,which were valued at $104million, are used to fundvarious academic pro-grams and student scholar-ships.
“When you look at thefact that we’re just nowstarting to come out of oneof the worst recessionsever, the investment deci-sions are starting to payoff,” said Grant Heston,assistant vice president ofUCF News & Information.
The $104 million is a 37percent increase from the$76 million earned in Feb-ruary 2009, the fund’s low-est point.
Heston said that wherethe school is now is a cred-it to the leadership of theuniversity.
“We’re always evaluat-ing where we are, where wemight want to go andwhat’s the best route to getthere,” Heston said.
The foundation, UCF’sofficial fundraising branch,is hoping to furtherincrease donations for the2011 fiscal year, which start-ed in July. As of November,more than $3 million hasbeen donated to the school.
“We are encouragingour donors to reach out toUCF with their support in2011, and we look forwardto building on our success-es,” Holmes said.
Annual gifts that aremade to the school can befor a particular program,college, department or aprogram to aid studentswho are the first member intheir family to go to college.

Millican did, however,see the need for a compre-hensive offering of cours-es. At its founding, he alsohelped to choose the Pega-sus as the university’s offi-cial seal.

“My favorite memoryof Charlie when I was astudent was him comingonto campus in the middleof the day and smoke hispipe under a tree and talkto us students,” Pynn saidin October.
“Charlie handed memy degree, but he went onto become not only a rolemodel, but a father to me.He was just a very specialpart of my life, and still is,”Pynn said after learning ofMillican’s death. “More

CORAL GABLES — The Donald has amessage for The U: Hire Mike Leach.
Donald Trump sent a letter toUniversity of Miami president DonnaShalala this week, suggesting theHurricanes hire the former Texas Techcoach to lead their football program.
Trump wrote the note on a copy ofThe Palm Beach Post’s Sunday sportssection, scrawling it over thenewspaper’s story announcing RandyShannon’s firing.
University officials confirmed theauthenticity of the note Wednesday.

Trump lobbied Miami to hire Leach in2006, when they ultimately choseShannon.
Cam Newton cleared to playin SEC title game vs.USC
INDIANAPOLIS -- Auburn quarterbackCam Newton is eligible to play in theSEC title game this weekend, eventhough the NCAA says his father brokerules by shopping his son to anotherschool.
The NCAA released its finding in astatement Wednesday. The collegesports governing body had concludedon Monday that a violation of Newton’samateur status had occurred. Auburndeclared Newton ineligible on Tuesdayand requested his eligibility bereinstated.
Newton has been cleared to competewithout conditions.
Auburn (No. 1 BCS, No. 2 AP) playsSouth Carolina (No. 19 BCS, No. 18 AP)in the Southeastern Conferencechampionship game Saturday. With avictory, the Tigers will earn a spot in theBCS National Championship Game.
“Based on the information availableto the reinstatement staff at this time,we do not have sufficient evidence thatCam Newton or anyone from Auburnwas aware of this activity, which led tohis reinstatement,”said Kevin Lennon,NCAA vice president for academic andmembership affairs. “From a student-athlete reinstatement perspective,Auburn University met its obligation . . .Under this threshold, the student-athlete has not participated whileineligible.”
Said Auburn athletic director JayJacobs: “We are pleased that the NCAAhas agreed with our position that CamNewton has been and continues to beeligible to play football at AuburnUniversity. We appreciate the diligenceand professionalism of the NCAA and itshandling of this matter.”
Former Mississippi State player KennyRogers, who has worked with a sportsagent, has said Newton’s father, Cecil,asked two Mississippi State coaches forup to $180,000 at a hotel in Starkville,Miss., to secure his son’s commitmentto the Bulldogs. Rogers says thecoaches declined the request, and MSUhas said all of its employees actedproperly.
Rogers is scheduled to meet withofficials from the Mississippi Secretaryof State’s office Dec. 9 to discuss therecruitment of Newton.

Hallman and the rest ofthe senior class weremembers of UCF’s first C-USA championship teamin 2007.

Jeff Godfrey has been slowly introduced to a heavier role in the UCF offense, and he leads all NCAA freshman quarterbacks inpass efficiency since becoming the Knights’ starter in Week Three.
ings in turnovers in thenation after starting theseason at 249 and finish-ing at 119, a year removedfrom an injury-plaguedseason in which they losttheir top three players tograduation.
Captain Kristin Fisherended her 2010 seasonwith 495 kills, 13 double-doubles, a C-USA offen-sive player of the weekaward on Tuesday, secondteam all-conference, all-academic conferenceteam with teammate ToryMcCutcheon, and a 4.27kills/set average that was20th best in the nation,and 3rd in C-USA.
“That’s a lot of pointswe have to make up, butI’m confident we have thesystem in place, we havethe setting, and we havethe players ready to stepin for those points,” saidDagenais.
Redshirt freshmenAngelica Crump and Nic-hole Riedel emerged intheir first full season andproved why they’re thefuture front row attackleaders with Riedel being
selected to the all-confer-ence freshman team. Set-ter Rachel Vukson quicklybonded with her newteammates after transfer-ring from Tulsa in Augustto finish with a 10.33assists/set average.
“She knows how tobreak a defense down,understands opponents,and is confident she cando it and were a muchmore confident teambecause of Rachel,” saidDagenais.
Sophomore MeredithMurphy solidified herrole as libero this seasonplaying in 118 sets andaveraging 4.14 digs per set,8th best in C-USA.
“I never worry abouther,” said Dagenais.“[Murphy] is so mentallystrong and competitivethat she is able to pull her-self out of anything. That’sa very hard position toplay for a young playerand I think she’s going tocontinue to get even bet-ter.”
Sophomore Dani Har-rison was the only Knightto play in all 119 sets thisseason rotating in a backrow that dramatically
improved its passing.Freshman Roxy Mendezshowcased her versatilityto earn the third defensiveslot.
“She is a naturally gift-ed player and it becameevident we needed her onthe floor somewhere,”Dagenais said. “Weallowed her to dig one-on-one against some of ouropponent’s best hittersand she really emerged tobe a special player.”
Five starters will returnnext year and plans tosign another strongrecruiting class will addmore competition.
“We’re either going tobe more experienced thanthis year or were going tobe younger and more ath-letic,” Dagenais said.
In Year Four of hisoverall scheme, Dagenaispredicts this is the yearthe pieces start comingtogether.
“We’re going to lookback five or ten yearsfrom now and say the firsttwo years really set up thethird year, and the thirdyear was the pivot pointwhen we really turned thecorner.”
Murphy takes team’s reinsFROM A8
Mustangs (7-5, 6-2) aremaking their first C-USAchampionship appear-ance. The Knights (9-3, 7-1)are hosting their thirdchampionship in six sea-sons.
“The ultimate goal is towin your division initiallyand then the next game isthe conference champi-onship,” said head coachGeorge O’Leary. “I thinkthat is the ultimate goal asfar as the conference isconcerned.”
The Knights will facethe conference’s top run-ning back in sophomoreZach Line. Line has postedsix 100-yard rushinggames, has more than1,300 all-purpose yardsand scored 10 touchdowns.
The Knights will alsohave to contain widereceiver Aldrick Robinson,a semifinalist for the 2010Biletnikoff Award. Heaverages 20.7 yards percatch and has scored in sixconsecutive games.
Despite an impressiveoffensive arsenal, the Mus-
tangs know that gettingpast UCF’s top-rankeddefensive unit won’t be aneasy task. Miller set aschool record in careersacks last week againstMemphis and is six tacklesaway from nabbing theschool record in careertackles for loss.
“Their defense is solid.From what I’ve seen so far,there’s a lot of speed morethan size,” Line said.“We’ve seen a majority ofsize this year, but notspeed. They’re a team thatcan relate to us. We’re a
faster team, so we’ll seehow that works out.”
Quarterback Jeff God-frey will try to sustain thestellar season he’s had hisfreshman year. Godfreywas introduced to theoffense little by little, andthe strategy has paid off.He leads all true freshmanquarterbacks in pass effi-ciency rating and has accu-mulated 529 rushing yardsand 10 rushing touch-
downs.“We kept building the
package a little bit towhere we didn’t throw outa big plate to him andexpect him to know it all,”O’Leary said. “I think theoffensive coaches did agood job of not force-feed-ing it but just nurturinghim along as the seasonwent through.”
Just three seasons ago,the Knights won their first
conference championship.This weekend, they’ll
take the field as thefavorites — a big changefrom when the senior classarrived at UCF back in2007.
“We don’t go out ontothe field and hear theannouncers say ‘Let’s see ifUCF can put up a goodfight,’ “ Hallman said.“Now, we’re expected towin every game.”

Football
As the National FootballLeague executiveapproached the podium atthe 2007 NFL Draft, MikeWalker waited to hear hisname called. The formerUCF receiver had waitedhours to hear a team call hisname.
Midway through thethird round, with the 79thoverall selection in thedraft, the JacksonvilleJaguars took a chance onthe Orlando native, signinghim to a four-year contract.
His hard work had paidoff, but it did not happenovernight.
Two years prior, Walkerwould be found in the UCFweight room pushing andfighting through a workoutwith the rest of his team-mates, each preparing for a2005 season that showedpromise.
The Knights were on aroll, despite a few earlybumps in the road, andwere poised for a trip to theinaugural Conference USAchampionship game.
Walker, then a junior,was proving to be a gamechanger and was skyrocket-ing up the UCF recordbooks. He ranks third inschool history in receivingyards and fourth in recep-tions, holding the single sea-son receptions record with90 in 2006.
But then something hap-pened that would throw awrench into all of his plans.
With two games left inthe regular season, Walkergot the news that he rup-tured his ACL and would beout for the C-USA titlegame as well as the firstbowl game in UCF history.
Walker went throughthree surgeries in the spanof one month, mostlybecause of excess swelling
as well as an infection he gotwhile in Hawaii with theteam at the bowl game.
It seemed as if his prom-ising future was coming to ascreeching halt.
But in 10 short months,he was back on the field,suited up and ready to dobattle.
“He is a warrior,” saidTim Salem, UCF specialteam’s coordinator whocoached Walker in 2006.“You wish you could have ahundred Mike Walkers onyour team.”
No struggles on the fieldcan compare to the loss ofhis father, who had lost atwo-year battle with coloncancer in December 2008.Compounding the loss ofhis father was the murder ofhis close friend less thantwo weeks earlier.
He found ways to copewith the loss of those whomhe held so dear.
“I picked up bowling,” hesaid. “My stepfather was abig bowler, so I bought a balland some shoes, and I go afew times a week now. It isreally good for me.”
He changed his lastname to Sims-Walker justbefore the 2009 preseason,to honor his father, MichaelSims.
Walker found an escapein bowling, and he also didsome traveling and visitedwith family. Through all ofhis endeavors, he foundtime to give back to thecommunity.
He found the time tocome down to UCF duringthe summer of 2009 andput in work in a very famil-iar setting.
“It is always good whenany of your former playerscan come back and gets achance to lift some weightsin the weight room or goout on the field to catchsome balls with the youngerguys,” Salem said. “They get
the chance to see an NFLfootball player that’s mak-ing a living doing some-thing we all think is fun.”
Since becoming a biggerpart of the Jaguars’ offensein 2008, Sims-Walker hasbecome a favorite target forJaguars quarterback DavidGarrard.
With the Jaguars’defense in shambles, theoffense found itself playingfrom behind more fre-quently and that has led toan increased passing game.
“It feels good to have abigger role,” he said. “I’mstill working and trying tocreate as big a role as I can.”
Sims-Walker started the2009 season at a fast pace,breaking 80 receiving yardsin four of the first six gamesof the season. He set acareer high with two touch-down receptions against the
division-rival TennesseeTitans, but was benchedone week later for breakingteam curfew during a WeekFive game in Seattle. Heresponded well, catching aseason-high nine passes for120 yards the followingweek.
This season, Sims-Walk-er has struggled and hasbattled some injuries aswell as the emergence ofteam-leading receiver MikeThomas.
But he has contributedwith sure hands and keythird-down catches, to thetune of 36 receptions for466 yards and four touch-downs.
Even though Sims-Walk-er has graduated to the NFL,he hasn’t forgotten his roots.He is still a Knight at heart.
This past summer, hewas on-campus to host the
first-ever Playmaker 11Scholarship ceremony,where he awarded 10 final-ists with a $100 bookstipend and one with a$1,000 stipend.
During his 2009 summervisit, he walked the halls ofthe athletic buildings chat-ting with everyone hecould.
What he really misses,though, is his former team-mates.
“We all worked hardtogether and did everythingon and off the field togeth-er,” he said. “We becomelike brothers after so long. Imade a lot of friends andmet a lot of people, and I goteven a best friend out of col-lege.”
Even though he isswamped with meetingsand practices in Jack-sonville, he still has a vested
interest in the football pro-gram at UCF and thinks thatO’Leary has the team mov-ing in the right direction.
“We might not be a BCSTop-10 team, but we aresending players to theleague,” Sims-Walker said,“And with players in theNFL, that is motivation tothe young guys when youcome back and workoutwith them.”
Nobody is happier to seeSims-Walker’s success thanJacksonville Jaguars headcoach Jack del Rio, who isecstatic to see him finallybreak out of his shell andcome into his own.
“We knew from DayOne that he had to potentialto be something special,” hesaid. “He has overcome a loton and off the field and hasreally matured as a playerand an individual.”

The fall semester flewby, and I’m 14 credit hourssmarter, 148 down — 17more to go.
As I check my list ofclasses off there is mostcertainly a sense ofaccomplishment butthere is also a loomingdoom that I feel creepingup on me … it’s impossibleto now ignore. This cloudof death, as I will forever-more refer to it as, is whathappens when you get adegree and actually jointhe … dare I utter theword … workforce.(Please interject scarymusic here.)
I wasn’t planning onthis part. I didn’t reallythink I would graduate. Ithought (think) an aster-oid would (will) hit theearth three days beforemy last final or globalwarming would havecaused our low-lyingpeninsula to be underwa-ter by now. Because I’m aFlorida native I couldn’tattend a university out-side of the AtlanticOcean, as I would have topay those prohibitive outof state fees.
I don’t think it’s the"working for a living" partthat scares me. I’ve alwaysdaydreamed about con-tributing to society, asopposed to leeching it,and in my dreams itseems really fun.
I think it’s just theimpending change in myroutine and surroundingsthat makes me feel likethe grim reaper is stand-ing just behind me, wear-ing a white collar andholding a Starbucks ventiquad-shot skinny cappuc-cino (macchiato style),tapping me on the shoul-der because he wants toshow me his shiny newmetal business card hold-er.
Change is not some-thing I’m comfortable
with; I was painfullyreminded of this over thesummer when my cardecided to turn off in themiddle of Alafaya Trail.
Sure, it needed a lotrepaired and I knew Ineeded to get a new one,but I think I would haveactually preferred to justcut a hole in the bottom ofmine and power it withmy feet like Fred Flint-stone as opposed to fac-ing the change involved inbuying a new car.
Not to mention thatmine was my friend, and Inever betray friends! But Ihad no choice; I had to geta new one, so I (as I soeffectively do whenforced) justified mybetrayal.
Last semester myclassmates and I read abestseller on how oneshould deal with change,"Who moved mycheese?”
This is a story abouttwo mice and two shrunk-en people, or maybe theywere born that way, whoknows, they didn’t go intothe details of why or howtwo 3-inch humans wereinside of a mini-labyrinthcompeting againstrodents.
That sounds like themore interesting story tome, but hey, I’m not theauthor.
The mice in the mazeimmediately adaptedwhen their cheese wasmoved, one tiny personhesitated, and theother...well...they impliedthat it died. I think they
refrained from saying itdirectly for the sake of thechildren that were readingit, because I’m sure morethan one grandmother mis-taking thought it to be abook for 7 to 11-year-olds.
This morbid implicationwas made after portraying itthroughout the entire bookin a negative light—some-thing that I never like toevery fault there is a virtueequally intertwined. The"bad guy," in reality, is neverall bad. There are benefits ofbeing reluctant in the face ofchange, actually more bene-fits than not.
Not only is it the momen-tum that keeps you on yourchosen path but it’s thisstick-to-it-iveness thatshows you are convicted inyour initial decisions.
If one completely andwithout hesitationembraced all change hewould not be the humanequivalent of a proficientmouse in search of newfound cheese, but of a life-less sewer rat that’s falleninto a storm drain and isnow being washed out intothe ocean, going where everthe current should feel
inclined to take him, stag-nant though always moving,directionless thoughappearing to be on it’s way,seemingly free thoughdesiring resistance.
Even if it did resemblethe primordial talents of a
mouse, they can’t fool meinto thinking that behavinglike a food deprived lab ani-mal is, under any circum-stances, a good oradmirable thing. I’m muchtoo much of a lady for such ametaphor.

s finals approach,chances are you’rescrambling around
trying to find all the neces-sary materials to prepare foryour tests.
For many students, thiswill be the last time theycram for finals before walk-ing across the graduationstage in two weeks.
For some this will markthe cessation of their life inacademia, but many othersstill have a long way to go toachieve their dreams.
Earlier this week, theFuture published an articleconcerning the alteration tothe GRE, the test graduateschool hopefuls arerequired to take.
The changes — such asnew questions and format-ting revisions — aredesigned to better reveal astudent’s likelihood of suc-cess while striving to earn amaster’s or doctorate.
Those of you whohaven’t contemplated gradschool should seriously con-sider doing so.
The current state of theeconomy means that formany recent or upcominggraduates a bachelor’sdegree simply isn’t enoughto earn them a job.
Because of this, many
students are opting for grad-uate school to make them-selves more appealing toemployers.
Research done by NathanBell, the director of researchand policy analysis for theCouncil of GraduateSchools, found that betweenfall 1999 and fall 2008, therate at which studentsapplied to graduate schoolincreased by 4.8 percent peryear.
Between fall 2008 andfall 2009, that number near-ly doubled to 8.3 percent, arather large increase.
Not to mention thoseseveral extra years in school— five to six for a doctorateand two for a master’s —can lead to a significantincrease in annual income.
A survey conducted in2008 by the U.S. CensusBureau found that the medi-an income for a personholding a bachelor’s degreeis $55,656.
Not a bad living by anymeans, but for professionalsholding a master’s degree,that number leaped to$67,337.
The real high rollers,however, were those whospent the extra time to earntheir doctorate; those indi-viduals earn $91,920.
Definitely something tokeep in mind when decidingwhat you want to do aftergraduation.
Graduate school isn’t foreveryone, and someemployers may not deemhigher academic degrees asa necessity.
We do want you to keepyour options open; don’tblow off graduate schoolbecause you think it’s toomuch time or effort,because for many, the extraacademic devotion reallypays off.
In any case, you shouldplan on taking the GRE sothat if misfortune strikesand you’re unable to find ajob after graduation, you’llhave an alternative to flip-ping burgers at a fast foodjoint in your hometown.
Today’s job market isfrightening, and it’s not asurprise that some studentsare literally afraid of lifeafter graduation.
We don’t want you toenter the real world unpre-pared.
Do your research, speakwith one of UCF’s manyadvisers and keep all youroptions open to ensure thatthe transition across thestage and into the real worldis as smooth as possible.
OUR STANCE
Give grad schoola chance
Almost everyone whohas ever had a job has hadto deal with a problemco-worker.
Nine times out of 10,those problem co-work-ers are the ones whodespise their jobs somuch that the only waythey can relieve their hatefor their job is by taking itout on those aroundthem.
I’ve dealt with two types of co-workers like this: the younger co-worker, normally around 16 to 22years old, and the “adult” co-worker,in their 30s and older.
You’d think the stubborn “I’m bet-ter than you” attitude or the lazywork ethic of most teenage co-work-ers would be the more challengingof the two types to deal with in theworkplace, but it’s the total opposite.
With teenagers, or those in theirearly 20s, you still have one thing incommon: your age.
This minute detail really can facil-itate a work-related relationship.People who are the same age tend toget along more easily at work.
Unlike those with largely differ-ing ages, when one extreme,whether it be the younger individualor the older individual, is alwaysfeeling the need to treat the otherlike they’re useless.
I’ve learned from experience thatmost of the time it’s the older peopledisrespecting the younger ones.
This makes me laugh hystericallybecause too many “adults” (why Istill call them that when I myself ama legal adult, I’ll never know) thinkthey possess the right to treat thoseyounger than them with contempt.
When something like this hap-pens in the workplace, it’s prettymuch a waste of time to worryabout.
Ignoring the person defying youin front of other co-workers and cus-tomers is the most effective way toattack the situation.
This will make yourco-worker think youaren’t interested in hear-ing what they have to say.Thus, giving them theimpression that theydon’t bother you.
However, when itbecomes almost ritualis-tic for your co-worker todisrespect you, actionneeds to be taken.
There’s nothing wrongwith standing up for yourself to an“adult” figure. For so long, I thoughtthat I didn’t have the place to do this,but now I see otherwise.
They are no better than ouryouth. Even though they should treatus with all the respect that we aretaught to treat them with, it doesn’tnecessarily mean that they will, asmost of us have learned.
So, I’ll live up to my own adviceand hope that others can do thesame.
Don’t allow your co-workers totreat you disrespectfully.
Don’t give them the power or sat-isfaction of thinking they’re allowedto try to make a fool of you becausethey have nothing better to do atwork.
If you can’t completely ignoretheir uninvited presence, then doyourself a favor and let them knowthat even though they are oldenough to be your parents, they’renot, and they have no right to talkdown to you and try to make youfeel inferior.
I’m not saying to go off on a tan-gent and yell at your co-worker orcall them foul names. That wouldsolve absolutely nothing.
Just remind them that youdeserve to be respected just as muchas anyone else in your workplace.
It’s about time young peoplemake a name for themselves in thework environment and stop “adults”short on convincing themselves thatthey have the right to be rude andinconsiderate toward them.

DON WRIGHT / TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES
JORDAN SWANSONGuest Columnist
On Sunday, WikiLeaks releasedmore than 250,000 documents per-taining to discussions between theU.S. Department of State and U.S.embassies in various countriesaround the world.
As Sunday drew near, manygovernments and agencies aroundthe world braced for potentiallycatastrophic consequences due tothe release of the cables. Whatreally ended up happening, howev-er, was probably a lot less danger-ous than many originally thought.
Cables about the Middle East, relationswith Asian nations and even remarks aboutworld leaders were made. What many fearedabout putting American troops or civilians ingrave danger, though, didn’t seem to come tofruition.
If anything, it seems like people expectedWikiLeaks to have obtained top-tier classi-fied documents about massive governmentscandals or little-known defense initiatives.
If anything, the information released justcreated a really awkward situation.
Governments lie. They cover up certainaspects of an incident and blatantly revealothers in an effort to construct a positiveview of their efforts. This isn’t me bashinggovernments and saying they’re all terrible.
Actually, this just goes to the root: govern-ments do these things because it’s how peo-ple are.
Yes, some interesting information wasuncovered, such as the U.S. relationship withTurkey. CNN reported that the U.S. cablesclaimed that Turkey was slipping moretoward a religious state and that a rumor wasspreading about a possible coup attempt byTurkey’s military.
The report by CNN said, however, thatoverall, the U.S. values its relationship withTurkey and sees it as the most importantpower in the Middle East; if anything, it is acounterbalance to Iran’s growing influence.
While some of the cables were serious,others were actually pretty hilarious.
In one cable, an American ambassadormet with Prince Andrew, the Duke of York.Concluding the meeting, the prince extendedhis respect and seemed cordial, but the fol-lowing information in the cable quotes aduke on the power of the U.S. versus the U.K.
The discussion was about U.S. and British
investment in Kyrgyzstan, eventu-ally leading to a discussion aboutAmericans’ understanding ofgeography.
“No surprise there,” said a dukepresent at the meeting. “TheAmericans don’t understand geog-raphy. Never have. In the U.K., wehave the best geography teachersin the world.”
Other cables included morediscussions on the same comediclevel as this. Some were analysis of
foreign leaders or actions, while others weresimply chitchat between the State Depart-ment and embassies around the world.
Reuters reported on a few of the moreembarrassing cables released by WikiLeaks.
In one, the American ambassadorsdescribed French President Nicolas Sarkozyas “thin skinned.” In another, a 2008 cableexplains the relationship between DmitryMedvedev, Russia’s president, and the coun-try’s prime minister, Vladimir Putin.
It describes Putin’s more powerful stanceand says that Medvedev “plays Robin toPutin’s Batman.”
The question that I’d ultimately like to askis: What happened to professionalism?
I can understand wanting to be laid-backand not wanting to write official reports allthe time, but let’s be serious: These peoplework for the government. People that controlrelationships with foreign nations read theircommunications.
On top of that, it’s almost 2011. People aremore connected than they’ve ever been. Wecan send transmissions full of data across theworld in seconds, so people should assumethat any communications they’re involvingthemselves in might be compromised at onepoint.
Ultimately, it makes me happy that politi-cians still have a sense of humor. What’s kindof awkward, however, is that our diplomaticofficials are using government cables to saythings that aren’t very constructive and thatshould probably be phrased a different way.
These people are smarter than that. Theyshould expect that, one day, they won’t be theonly ones reading these messages.
WikiLeaks isn’t dangerous. For now, it’sjust showing what some people say whileothers aren’t listening. Isn’t that somethingwe all do on a daily basis anyway?
Wikileaks releases moreawkward than dangerous
